I recall a bug in the TPaint file requesters where it truncated listings of directories which it arbitrarily considered over-full. Also, I advise anyone transferring graphics to avoid the framestore format unless they are using the graphics for a switcher-based presentation. The framestore loads faster than an RGB image, but converting to the framestore is essentially encoding your RGB into NTSC composite, with an unaviodable and irreversible loss of quality. I can never remember pixel aspect details, but if your PC graphic is 640×480 and fills the screen, you want to stretch it to 752×480 to fill the Toaster video screen.
